With the new Amex Platinum $300 Equinox credit as well as a ~$1k credit I get from my company for gym memberships that can bring down the all-access membership by ~33% albeit still expensive ($200/month), just wondering what has been everyone’s experience with Equinox (i.e., is it worth the money, are the clubs that much nicer than a standard gym, do they have all the equipment (e.g., deadlift platforms, etc.) or are you better served by a Lifetime Fitness / 24 Hour Fitness?

Salam. 23M here - all my life I’ve had my back on our faith - never really prayed but had imaan (I guess).

Faith is the only area where I think I need more guidance. Having trouble relating to friends or family about this. Anyone else been thru something similar? How have you connected back to Islam?

I was recently (in April) fired from a good nursing position that I was at for 5 years. I reached out to my old ADON to get some information on where we had our vaccinations from and she told me that I should come back and the administrator that I had issues with is gone.
